| Between fiction and fact This was written to "The True" a song by The Knux. If you name a song "The True" You NEED TO TELL THE TRUTH........so I did it for them:coffee-n-news_3: Between fiction and fact It's got be white it's got to be black There is no middle between fiction and fact You can't believe a story and call the truth of it a lie You can't scream pro-life but care less whether children during a war live or die How can you be for Revolution but scared of revolt How can you be for change but your only step forward is a damn vote You know you've got to stand up and fight for what's needed At times put your body on the line and risk bleeding We're in need of liberation We're in need of a power shift But you can't get that mission complete if you don't even compete Or say what needs to happen and be part of the action Talking about burying words and forgetting the use of verbs is just a big distraction You sit there and wait for the war to be won But while your waiting the cause is getting lost The focus is being changed and it's all being done in your damn name It's no longer just about being white or about being black Yet there is still no gray in the area of FREEDOM and the LACK Jalili B.
